FALCONS TAILGATE PARTY(Oct 29,2000)

It was a perfect fall day for football!

We all gathered for our first annual (??) Falcons Tailgate Party, around 11:00am.  No one cared much that the Falcons were slated for a sure loss --  our real occasion for celebration being a send-off for Craig/ and Matthew's Birthday. 

BUT WOW! What's this?! The game was exciting too, as the Falcons intercepted not once but twice - and came back in the final two minutes of the game to beat the Panthers 13-12!

Though Matthew did all the shopping, it took all of the boys' concentrated efforts to get the fire going.
Proud papa Russell, future running-back Taylor, and Erica were all smiles.
